Malcor III was the homeworld of the Malcorians, located over 2,000 light years from Earth. The planet was led by a chancellor.
The nearest star system to Malcor III was the Garth system, which was less than a light year away.
The planet made First Contact with the Federation prematurely when William T. Riker, on a mission to investigate the species, was revealed as an alien. Avel Durken was the planet's chancellor at this time. (TNG: "First Contact")
It is likely that the planet has a 29-hour day.
In the The Nitpicker's Guide for Next Generation Trekkers, Volume II (p. 278), author Phil Farrand states that the planet was named after fan Karen P. Malcor.
